Right to Access the internet

The UN has declared internet access to be a human right. As the UN Special Rapporteur has stated, the Internet has become an indispensable tool for realizing a range of human rights, combating inequality, and accelerating development and human progress, ensuring universal access to the Internet should be a priority for all States. Indeed, in some countries, particularly in developed regions, the internet is already deeply woven into the economic and social fabric of the society. However, the benefits of the Internet must be shared by all the world's citizens. The Internet can only continue to drive democracy and economic development if freedom of expression and the freedom to receive and access information are guaranteed. Without this, internet access as a human right is illusory at best. The purpose of this session is two-pronged: First, panelists will discuss the experience and initiatives of countries that have succeeded in significantly improving internet access for the community. Second, the panelists will then discuss how improved internet access has enabled communities to realize a range of human rights, combat inequality, and accelerate progress.
